From Fast Fashion to Upcycling with KINDOM Founder Claire Powers

Former fast fashion clothing designer Claire Powers talks about why her experience in the fashion industry led her to create her own ethical and sustainable fashion brand KINDOM, how she keeps pushing her company to be more sustainable, and how they give back to garment workers. Claire also talks about her commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and how she strives for zero waste by upcycling her designs.  KINDOM uses sustainable, natural, recycled, reclaimed, and indigenous materials, fair trade-made in ethical and compliant facilities, while also offering size-inclusive & gender-inclusive fashion.  For show notes visit https://www.swapsociety.co/pages/podcast
